Hello ,

After using 2 sets of S7 edge .. ( my self and my GF. ) .. which bought at the same time over a year ago . ( June 2016. )

The expriences was not so good ..

First both sets phone having the black spot pixel problem , sent in warranty and managed to change new screen without paying . ( it was only a few months after bought it .


And now today ..my S7 edge spotted another black spot pixel .. on the top left hand corner ..
Warranty period over .. so was told it will cost 1000 ringgit to change .. ( really ridiculous pricing )

At the same time , my GF . S7 edge . screen cracked due to dropping ...

Was told also about 1000 ringgit to replace new part ..

Conclusion ... no more Samsung for me .


I am more comfortable with android ..


Looking forward to change to 2 new sets of Latest android ,

Should I consider Nokia 8 , or same other android like Huawei Or LG ..


Please give me advice .. and share your expriences


my budget is under 3000 ringgit each ...


Thank you .cheers

When the screen itself cost half the price of your phone.ouch..

Take a look at :
LG V20 or wait for the V30.
OnePlus 3T/5
Xiaomi Mi6/5X
Huawei P10

One plus 5 is a good choice. But XZ premium also good too. I using xz premium currently. No problem so far.

First time heard S7 users got black spot display and you got three! Must be a routine that you repeat that got you that. Is it same as AMOLED burnt screen?

something like oneplus 5 is a really good choice, as oneplus 3 user,the durability of oneplus is really great(since its metal back, with flat screen), and it looks good too

its among the cheapest flagship u can buy,so u can save a lot from there, and the performance is top notch

alternatively, try look for something like honor 8 pro or mate 10(upcoming),these phone have good battery life, decent camera, quite durable, huawei phone are getting good these day

Go test drive all flagships at nearby kiosk to experience yourself and your partner together (isn't that lovely...)...

Based on your previous Sammy S7 Edge(s) scenario, you are looking for a device that "should" have:
1) Good low-light camera(s).
2) Stunning display.
3) Average 5 hours Screen-on-Time.
4) IP68 water & dust rating.
5) Reliable after sales services, and...
6) Blacklisted any Sammy product series....

My vote is ....

.... anything below Top 5...

Try to avoid bezel-less design as one unlucky drop, get ready to fork out >RM750 per replacement (provided don't apply screen protector and anti-shock casing; plus; quotation from Authorised Service Centres...).

This is how all manufacturers making profit for all new incoming flagships... Promoting bezel-less design hoping to get us pay for screen replacement... Apple is doing it soon, Sammy already done it, Huawei to follow, LG is on board, the trend will happen to all vendors eventually...

So, what is your plan for the current S7E units...? Trade-in for anything below Top 5 above...?

Hello,


Thank you all for your reply posting and your kind advise ...

Knowing that almost all ( if not all ) brands are going almost the same direction in term of bezeless design , .. ( with the pro and con issue )


I had watched some review on YouTube .. regards to new android ,

I wonder how is Nokia 8 doing in Malaysia market ..

I had a fairly good expriences using lumia b4 my S7 E ..

And now knowing Nokia 8 is on android ..making me wanting to jump in it ..


Thank you again for all your advise .

I am narrowing it down to Sony XZ premium or Nokia 8 .


I guess it is going to be a tough choice ..

As for my S7E ... ( 2 sets ) ...cheap cheap trade in looh ..

Hello,


Thank you once again for your posting advice..

Today I was at huawei store checking on the P 10 plus ,


The staff attended to me . Which I told her that I using S7E .. for over a year ..

And I request her to show me the MAGIC of P10plus .. vs S7 E and also S8

I was impressed by her explanation specially over the Leica lens and the software comes with it ..

Further to the tips of screen shot by just knock knock or knock knock with S ..

And also the infra Features to turn on my aircon .. unit ..


Looks like Nokia 8 or Sony Ez premium . Stands at no chances for my consideration..

Ooohhh yes , huawei now is having merdeka. Freebies worth about 299 ringgit ..

Let me sleeps over this on weekend . And decide by next week ..

Cheers

If can wait Huawei soon will have mate 10. Or if lower price can go for Huawei honor 8 pro. Almost same spec like p10+. Oneplus 5, LG g6 is a gd choice. v30 should b over ur budget when launch. But if u scare of amoled then do go for LCD screen
